Paris Charles de Gaulle

Paris, home to the Eiffel Tower, Champs-Elysees, Louvre, and Notre Dame, is also home to history, shopping, fashion and romance. Whatever the reason you visit, you won’t go home disappointed because Paris is all of these and more.

Airport Transportation:

Charles de Gaulle Airport is about 25km from Paris and offers bus, subway, shuttle van and taxi service. Bus service from Terminal 9, however, is not direct to central Paris but, rather, is a complimentary bus (navette) service that picks up passengers outside the airport terminal and drops off at the Roissy-Charles de Gaulle RER (commuter train) station. From there you can take the train, reaching the city center in about 30 minutes, costing about €8. A taxi ride into central Paris will run you about €40. Alternatively, you can prearrange for a shuttle van for transport between the airport and the city, costing anywhere between €23 to €55 each for one to four persons travelling.
